Frank H. Stillinger, theoretical chemist: A tribute

Article Abstract:

The sad demise of Frank H. Stillinger, one of the major figures of contemporary theoretical chemistry, is described. Recognition of Frank's numerous accomplishments includes election to the National Academy of Sciences (1984) and receipt of the ACS Hildebrand (1986) and Debye (1992) awards, the APS Langmuir Prize (1989), and the Onsager Medal (2002).

Numerical test of Stillinger's argument concerning the Kauzmann paradox

Article Abstract:

Some issues relevant to Frank H. Stillinger's argument are tested numerically by generating inherent structures for a range of energies and system sizes. The results confirm that the properties of localized defects and excitations as presented by Stillinger are indeed valid for the model liquid.

Effect of surface polarity on water contact angle and interfacial hydration structure

Article Abstract:

The effect of surface polarity on water contact angle and interfacial hydration structure was investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. It was found that the magnitude of the surface dipole correlates with the contact angle in a one-to-one correspondence.
